Tick Tick Boom soundtrack – Louder Than Words lyrics

Why do we play with fire?
Why do we run our finger
Through the flame?
Why do we leave our hand
On the stove, although we
Know, we're in for some pain?
Oh, why do we refuse
To hang a right,
When the streets are dangerous?
Why does it take an accident,
Before the truth gets through to us?
Cages or wings,
Which do you prefer?
Ask the birds
Fear or love, baby
Don't say the answer
Actions speak louder than words
Why should we try to be our best
When we can just get by
And still gain?
Why do we nod our heads
Although we know the
Boss is wrong as rain?
Why should we blaze a trail
When the well worn path
Seems safe and so inviting?
How, as we travel, can we
See the dismay
And keep from fighting?
Cages or wings,
Which do you prefer?
Ask the birds
Fear or love, baby
Don't say the answer
Actions speak louder than
Louder than
Louder than
Words
What does it take
To wake up a generation?
How can you make someone
Take off and fly?
If we don't wake up
And shake up the nation
We'll eat the dust
Of the world wondering why
Why do we stay with lovers
Who we know down deep
Just aren't right?
Why would we rather put
Ourselves through hell
Than sleep alone at night?
Why do we follow the leaders
Who never lead?
Why does it take catastrophe
To start a revolution
If we're so free?
Tell me why
Someone tell me why
So many people bleed
Cages or wings,
Which do you prefer?
Ask the birds
Fear or love, baby
Don't say the answer
Actions speak louder than
Louder than
Louder than
Louder than
Louder than
Cages or wings,
Which do you prefer?
Ask the birds
Fear or love, baby
Don't say the answer
Actions speak louder
Louder than
Louder than
They speak louder
Louder than
Louder than
Actions speak louder than words!
